There are two types of weightlifters who compete. Those who push through "comfort zones" and later become champions, and those who are to afraid to see what they are truly capable of. Someone once asked me, "Donny what is the secret to being a great weightlifter?" The only response I had for him was, "Work hard everyday and accept no comfort zones." This mantra does not just apply to weightlifters. Pushing through "the hard" in order to succeed goes for everyone in every walk of life. I chose the image of a weightlifter because the weightlifter confronts his comfort zone everyday. When you start your car before you leave for the gym look down at this keychain and vow to yourself that you will accept "NO COMFORT ZONES." Artwork drawn by local weightlifter Ben Claridad.

Cool key chain Donny, I plan on buying one. Also, I suggest you design a t-shirt for folks to buy - I think you've got a big following and would sell a ton of them.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome SEABASS thank you. I have been experimenting with some ideas for a t-shirt but, have not quite found something. If there are any suggestions from the readers of this blog for a t-shirt idea please feel free to chime in.
ReplyDeleteDonny-
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me that you don't so much need the idea for a single t-shirt, but rather a complete image and brand. Think about what Rippetoe's done with Starting Strength; how Pendlay has kind of made a made a brand out of himself. It's sort of a lame example, but Tito Ortiz has capitalized on his image with the whole Team Punishment thing (http://www.titoortiz.com/).
I don't know what your "brand" would be, but you seem to be an articulate and thoughtful guy with world class credentials in your chosen discipline. I think you could package all that up pretty well.
